Finally!

I have not been able to get on since early in the week! I have withdrawls! Watch out I don't OD now. hehe

I am pretty sure it was a TFF problem. Othrs across the continent were unable to get on too.

There was a problem with database, it got corrupt somehow.

Yeah that's what the message said, 5teady. I have not known it it go down this long before. But it just went back up in the last hour. I almost emailed William this morning! But I thought better of it. LOL

I didn't have a clue what was going on and I've not got to know people that well yet, so had nobody to contact outside the fishforum. Then I remembered that I'd bought some of Shaz's Cherry Shrimps from Ebay a long time ago, so had a quick chat about the lack of forum!!
Thank goodness it's back on though eh guys!!!

 

[jollysue]

It didn't take us long to get on!

I missed you guys and the Cory chatter!

 

[jollysue]

I wonder if it is the same terrorist that messed with Drewery?

 

[corey01]

[Eclecticoldsod]

Were there any (more) silly people who did a system restore in an effort to get back on..?

 

[jollysue]

Maybe the first time it happened to me, eclecticoldsod.

 

[Gazo]

No hehe, a quick word to a pc expert mate let me know it was an external problem!!

 

[liz2]

I got fed up trying to get on here...I had to resort to some of my really old fish forums

 

[jollysue]

I went shopping! I spent about $400! I definately need a 12 step. I am an addict! LOL Hi liz2!

I hate it when I can't get on. I need my fishy fix sometimes... I my escape from the stresses of life. It is mandatory at times.
I just kept Jollysue on chat more... lol She puts up with me and my talkativeness quite nicely...
Somehow I didn't know about the shopping trip though... I don't know how I missed that.
I stay very busy now, so it was not as big of a tragedy as it would have been a few months ago. I still miss it when I can't get on though... the withdrawal is still hard to deal with.
It is amazing how addictive things like this are... I have been told that I shouldn't get so hooked, because I have never met any of these people nor do I have any connection with them... it is just a screen with writing sort of like reading a book... They just don't get it! It is real people, and we do connect and form bonds...
When we can't get on... we lose the connection. Then we miss them...
I know the site is about fish, but it is also connection with others with similar interests and experiences. (making friends) For many this is the biggest part. This is usually the part we miss most when we are unable access the site. I know it is for me...
I have been told by some on here to "get a life". I do have a life... this just happens to be a large part of it...
Have a blessed day
